I picked up this tape on a whim and they ended up being really freakin' light. 38g for the full length and the backing still attached. I'm guessing the tape will weigh closer to 30g after applied and cut.

They're made of foam and feel comfy and durable. Will have to see how they hold up, but I wanted to get the word out.

That's about the same weight as Deda's perforated EVA tapes, which weigh 37g on my scale (uncut length is 184cm per roll).

I also bought Deda's alloy color tapes, they're also very light(42.5g) and should look good on my matte black bike, but the tapes are less elastic than other Deda EVA tapes so I still keep them as spare.

Bike Ribbon, or Stella Azurra, have various tapes that are very good for the price. We carry most of them and they have one in Digital Grey (looks similar to the matte on most newer bikes, that is also very light.

I used only a single piece of the tape, and did both sides of my bars. 19 grams including electric tape. A nicer job could be done the traditional way, with more tape overlapped, and wrapping continuing closer to the stem. But I went for the lightweight setup.
